Thanks, Cheryl. So far his first semester is going quite well. He got to attend the symphony last night (free ticket because it’s a course requirement). He called to say, “I can’t believe this is college homework.” It’s a definite piano perk!

This post is a culmination of years of advice from friends — I hope it blesses you when you make the transition.

Blessings,
Karen

Carla,
Life itself is a journey! 🙂 Travel or family milestones… they go together.

Leah,
Much of this advice comes from letting go at kindergarten, when he started driving, his first date, proms… all the milestones. 🙂
Blessings.

Rosey, Our little group is gathering care package items now. Can’t say what they are since my son checks my blogs, but it sure is fun!

I am a few years away yet, it seems more like thousands of years, but I will tuck away this advice. Thanks. (I hope your son has a fantastic year.)
